Hello everyone,
I'm using matlab/simulink on a dual monitor setup on windows 10, the main one with a 2160x1440 resolution and the second with a standard 1920x1080 res. The main monitor has scaling set to 150% while the secondary one is set to 100%. If I move matlab or simulink windows to the secondary monitor everything (interface, text etc.) is pretty blurry, readable but not very nice to see. How should I set up MATLAB and Simulink in order to avoid this?

Getting display scaling to work in the first place was an issue. Earlier versions of Windows 10 had issues, and many programs were ill-suited for scaling, resulting in blurry or tiny text. Now you're making the problem worse by combining a screen with and without display scaling. I didn't even know that was possible.
You could try to make Matlab an exception to display scaling (which would solve the blurry text problem, but would introduce the problem of tiny text). Otherwise, you could contact Mathworks support. They might not have considered your use case when testing the UI.

I face the same problem. I guess it is a common scenario when working on a laptop with an external screen.
For me, it helped to go Windows settings -> System -> Display -> Advanced Scaling Settings and enable "Let Windows try to fix apps so they're not blurry".
